" On a grander scale , when a society segregates itself , the consequences effect the economy ,the emotions , and the ecology. That's one reason why it's easy for the pro-lifer to eat factory raised animals that disrespect everything sacred about creation . And that is why it is easy for rabid enviromentalists to hate chainsaws even though they snuggle into a mattress supported by a black walnut bedstead . " - Joel Salatin
